Chapter 5

What Are You Doing?

~*Audi's pov*~

Aunt Lucy and I sat in the How wondering what was taking so long. Then a horn blew looking at each other and headed for the exit. Things didn't look good. There was less soldiers and lots of wounded. "Dad!" I yelled running to him as he opened his arms to me.

"What happened?" Aunt Lucy asked noticing the scowl on dad's face.

"Ask him!" he barked at Caspian. I looked at dad then at Caspian.

"Peter!" Aunt Susan snapped.

"Me?" Caspian questioned. "You could have called it off. There was still time." Dad let go of me and pushed me behind him.

"No there wasn't thanks to you. If you had kept to the plan. Those soldiers would still be alive." He turned around and put his arm around me.

"And if you had just stayed here like I suggested then they definitely would be!" Caspian shouted.

"You called us remember," dad scowled.

"My first mistake," Caspian countered. I looked up at the Telmarine prince as he fought with dad the High King of Narnia.

"No your first mistake is thinking you could lead these people," dad shouted angrily at him.

"HEY I am not the one who abandoned Narnia," Caspian snarled. I felt my heart drop into my stomach hearing that coming from his mouth.

"WE DIDN'T ABANDON NARNIA!" this time it was mum who shouted at Caspian. I noticed that she was holding her left atm. "WE WERE FORCED TO RETURN TO OUR WORLD AGAINST OUR WILL!" I could see tears of hurt and anger and sorrow welling in her eyes.

"You invaded Narnia. You have no more right than Miraz does!" dad shouted at him as Caspian passed us. "You, him, your father! Narnia is better off without the lot of you!" Dad must have hit a nerve on that one as Caspian pulled his sword on him. I got in between him and his sword as it cut my cheek and dad pulled out his sword pulling me back out of the way.

"STOP IT!" Uncle Edmund yelled. We all looked back as Glenstorm was holding an unconscious Trumpkin. My heart fell to my stomach seeing my friend like that. Aunt Lucy and I ran over to him. She gave him a drop of her cordial at first it didn't seem to work but then he caught his breath and opened his eyes.

"What are you all standing around for?" he barked making me sigh in relief that he was alright. "Telmarines will be here soon enough." Aunt Lucy got up as did I "Thank you."

I watched mum and dad walk away as the injured were being treated. I went up to Liam and he looked at me with sorrow in his eyes. "I am sorry Liam." I hugged him and he kissed my head as we went to find mum and dad. He wiped the blood that was trickling down my cheek from Caspian's sword. Once we found them Aunt Susan was treating mum's wound.

"How'd she get that?" Liam asked as we sat next to them. Dad looked back the way we came and then back at us.

"Saving Caspian," he whispered. "Seems like the cordial doesn't have an effect on us." We looked at Aunt Lucy who looked sad. I nodded and reached into my pouch that I keep on me at all times.

"Here try this. I made it, it helps heal wounds faster," I said holding it out to dad. He put it on for her after cleaning the wound. It didn't look as bad as what I first thought. Dad then took my face in his hands and put some on my cheek. "Thanks." We all sat there quietly not knowing what to do. Dad put his hand on Liam's neck and smiled at him.

"You fought very well Liam. I am proud of you," he said. Liam nodded and then was turned to face mum. She put her hand to his face and smiled.

"Your father and I never abandoned you both. We were forced to leave you behind. Never a day went by my heart was breaking knowing that I left you. When we got back to our world we were separated. Then my father your grandfather was wounded and an infection set in killing him months ago. Then my mother your grandmother passed away a few weeks ago. I wish they could have seen you both," mum said. I hugged her after telling us that she lost grandfather and grandmother right after she lost us. How cruel the world can be.

"We have never blamed you for leaving. Actually Audi I must tell you this. One day when I was twelve I was out hunting and there I saw Aslan. Just for a moment then he was gone just as the breeze picked up. But on the wind his voice said. 'Trust in me Prince of Narnia you shall find what you lost.' Not knowing at the time that what I lost. No what Narnia lost was its kings and queens and now you are all back." Liam said looking down at his hands.

"That explains a lot," uncle Edmund said. We were having a family moment when something ran up my spine.

Looking behind me something was pulling me towards the stone table. Getting up heading to the stone table. Once close I could see my breath. This couldn't be good. Walking in just in time to see that there was an ice wall with a figure in it. "The White Witch?" I whispered. Staying hidden in the back as she spoke to Caspian.

"This isn't what I wanted," Caspian said shock evident in his voice. Trying to back up but the werewolf held him to the spot. Held his arm with his palm out.

"One drop of Adam's blood and you free me, then I am yours my king" she coaxed to him. I kept saying over and over no, don't listen to her.

"No!" The hag cut his palm. Now bleeding the witch stuck out her pale hand out of the ice. Caspian was going to do it he was going to free her. Standing up rushed over to him. Kicking the wolf out of my way.

"No Caspian you can't do this," I shouted at him. Pulling his shirt as I yelled trying to get his attention. She looked at me and smiled.

"Ah dearest Bridget, high queen of Narnia," she taunted but then looked closer to me. "No you aren't her. Who are you?"

"Stop! Audrey! Move!" I heard dad yell as he, uncle Edmund, aunt Lucy and Trumpkin came into the room. The wolf and the hag started to fight dad and uncle Edmund as Trumpkin was fighting Nikabrik. Nikabrik had Trumpkin pinned until aunt Lucy came to help. She held her dagger at his throat but Nikabrik just pulled her arm behind her back trying to break it. She screamed in pain I turned my attention back to Caspian as the witch tried her hardest to get his blood.

"Caspian snap out of it," I yelled trying to get his attention. Then dad pushed him out of the circle taking Caspian's spot. He landed on top of me with a hard thud knocking the wind out of me.

"Get away from them!" dad yelled keeping his sword at her.

"Peter dear. I missed you. Come just one drop. You know you can't do this alone," she taunted.

"Dad don't listen to her!" I yelled as Caspian and I stood up.

"Dad? Oh so this girl is your daughter? Well help me and I can promise that she will never come to harm. And neither will your dear little Bridget," the witch said. Dad hesitated and looked at her but then a sword was stabbed through the ice shattering the wall into millions of pieces.

Caspian put his arm around me protecting me from the debris that fell around us. Uncle Edmund stabbed the witch and broke the spell. "I know you had it sorted." Was all he said before leaving. Going to dad hugging him as he looked me over making sure I wasn't hurt.

"Are you alright?" he questioned. Nodding then looking back to Caspian. He looked behind us as we turned to see Susan glaring at both of them. She walked away and I noticed that Caspian had a look of despair. Feeling my heartache for some odd reason. No it couldn't be that I have fallen for the Telmarine prince? Shaking my head and buried it into dad's chest as he stroked my hair.

After we left the stone table mum let dad have it when she found out about the witch. I never seen her so mad at him. Aunt Susan never helped either. Walking outside when I saw Caspian just sitting there staring off into the distance. Turning to go back inside so I wouldn't disturb him when I heard him calling me. "Audrey?" he asked.

"I am sorry. I didn't know anyone was out here. I will leave you alone," I said looking down at the ground.

"No please sit," he pointed. "I am sorry for everything that has happened. Not to mention that I wanted to say thanks for saving me earlier against the witch. I don't know why but I was..."

"Under her spell." I looked out at the distance then back at him. Looking deep into his eyes feeling my face heat up. Averting my gaze back to the scenery.

Feeling his hand on my face making me look at him. "You are so beautiful, just like your mother and Susan," he said making me grow even redder. Then feeling his lips come softly onto mine. I don't know what happened but something clicked I started kissing him back. The kiss was passionate. When we parted to breathe looking up at him in shock. Quickly getting to my feet. He looked at me with confusion and hurt in his eyes. "What's wrong?"

"I don't know, Caspian I am confused." Leaving him going back into the How when he grabbed my arms.

"Please wait," he said turning me to face him. Tears pooled in my eyes and he went to wipe them away when I turned.

"I can't," I said tearing away from him and ran inside passing the professor on my way in. Running right into Liam holding on to him tightly as he just held me.

"Woah what's wrong?" he asked me.

"I don't know. I am so confused," I sobbed into him.

~*Bridget's pov*~

I walked up to Peter as he was staring at Aslan's portrait. Sitting beside him he looked at me placing his arm around me. "I am sorry about the witch," he said.

"I know it was Nikabrik's fault. Peter I love you so much but why do you keep things to yourself?" Looking at me as I noticed the depression that was in his eyes after we came back to England. Placing my hands on his face bringing him to mine giving him a long and passionate kiss. "Remember our vow. We will face anything that comes our way together." He nodded and kissed me again then we heard someone clear their throat behind us. Looking back to see that it was Lu. "I am going to find Liam and Audrey."

"Alright. Love you darling," Peter said kissing me again. Taking my leave I went to find our children, but before I could find them Edmund came up to me as he went to get his brother. The four of us found Caspian, Susan, Liam, Trumpkin and Audrey already watching what was before us. Hundreds of soldiers marching towards the How. Their machines being pulled by horses. And there in the middle of it all dressed in golden armor Miraz. Looking at each other trying to figure out what we are going to do. Peter took my hand in his squeezing it.

Going back in Peter came up with a plan. "Tights and kettledrums. That's your next big plan?" Trumpkin asked. "Sending a little girl into the darkest parts of the forest alone?"

"It's our only chance," Peter argued.

"And she won't be alone," Susan said. Trumpkin came up to Lucy with sad round eyes.

"H...haven't enough of us died already?"

"Nikabrik was my friend to," Trufflehunter said.

"As was he mine," Audrey said putting her hand on the dwarf's shoulder.

"But he lost hope. Queen Lucy hasn't," Trufflehunter continued. "And neither have I,"

Reepicheep took his blade and placing it over his heart. "For Aslan."

"For Aslan," Bugly the Bear said standing up.

"Then I am going with you," Trumpkin said.

"No we need here," Lucy countered putting her hand on his shoulder.

"We have to hold them off until Lucy and Susan get back," Peter said trying to figure out what we are to do.

"If I may?" Caspian asked. We all looked at him as he stayed silent for a little bit. Then standing up he came over to us. "Miraz may be a tyrant, and a murderer. But as king he subjected to the traditions and expectations of his people. There is one in particular that may buy us some time," Caspian suggested. I didn't like that idea at all. I looked at Peter as he nodded and drew up the challenge scroll. I looked over at Audrey and Liam and went to hug them.

"Your father will be fine," I said trying to comfort them as much as possible. I walked passed Caspian as he was getting the girls ready for their mission. He was flirting with Susan an awful lot not to mention playing with my little girl's heart. Yes I know she likes him. I saw them kiss before the army got here. I had passed them when going to see Peter.

~*Audi's pov*~

I went with uncle Edmund, Liam, Glenstorm and the giant named Wimbelweather to the Telmarines to deliver dad's challenge to Miraz. I received lots of stares and whistles from the soldiers. You would think they'd never seen a woman in trousers before. When we reached the tent where Miraz and the others were sitting uncle Edmund, Liam and I went in while the others stayed out.

"I, Peter by the gift of Aslan by election by conquest. High king of Narnia, Lord of Cair Paravel and Emperor of the Lone Islands. In order to prevent the abominable apportion of blood. Do hereby challenge Miraz to single combat upon the field of battle. The fight shall be to the death. The reward shall be total surrender." He finished reading it and we looked at the false king as he looked upon us.

"Tell me prince Edmund..."

"King." He cut off making Miraz look at him.

"Pardon me?" he questioned.

"It's King Edmund actually. Just king though. Peter is the high king," he finished.

"Then what are those two?" Miraz asked looking at us.

"They are Prince Liam and Princess Audrey. My nephew and niece. I know it's confusing," Edmund said.

"Why would you risk such a proposal when our army can wipe you out by nightfall?" Miraz said making me angry.

"Haven't you already underestimated our numbers? I mean only a week ago Narnian's were extinct," he looked around.

"And so you will be again."

"Well than you shall have little to fear," uncle Edmund said causing Miraz to laugh.

"That is not a question of bravery," he said.

"So you're bravely refusing to fight a swordsman half your age?" he questioned earning a point against Miraz's pride.

"I didn't say I refused." He snapped at Edmund.

"You shall have our support your majesty. Whatever you decision." The one on my right said making us look at him. He looked at me and eyed me up and down I felt my stomach churn as if I was going to throw up.

"Sire our military advantage alone provides the perfect excuse to avoid..." the one at his right said. He stood up with his sword in hand.

"I am not avoiding anything!" There was tension in the air between Miraz and his right hand man. I looked at Liam and uncle Edmund as we watched on.

"I was merely pointing out that milord is in the rights to refuse," he pointed back at us.

"His majesty would never refuse. He relishes the chances to show the people the courage of their new king," one said behind us. Again tension between them all very thick.

"You. You should hope that your brother's sword is sharper than his pen." Miraz said pointing his sword at us.

We made haste to get back with the others before dad had to go out and face that old man. I looked at him dressed in his armor. "Be careful daddy." I hugged him as he kissed my head and hugged me.

"I will. Now you better head on up with Trumpkin and the other archers until your aunt comes back," he said making me nod. Hugging him one more time then headed up with the other archers and took out an arrow just to be on the save side. Whenever I am nervous I rub the blue fletching on the arrows. I looked down and saw Liam hug him as well and took the right side of uncle Edmund and him.

~*Bridget's pov*~

I watched as Audi head up to the other archers and Liam took Peter's and Edmund's right side. Peter took me into his arms kissing me. Feeling tears prickle at the corner of my eyes. "Don't cry Bri I will be fine," he said but it didn't help.

"Promise me you won't die," I sobbed into his chest. He brought my face to his and kissed me one more time.

"Promise," he said and let me go as he and the other's walked up to the battle ground. The battle began with Peter making the first move.
